The dust has settled and the smoke has cleared, and the Artist has claimed the title of Best Picture of 2011. It was a fitting choice for the show which had a back to the future type of feel to it thanks to Billy Crystal coming back to host the show for the 9th time, and bringing with him his usual digital inserting of himself into the movies and song and dance number.

This year’s Academy Awards has all ready had its fair share of drama with producer Brett Ratner leaving after making an insensitive comment and his choice host Eddie Murphy following suit shortly there after, but with Billy Crystal making a return and some competition between best picture nominees it still has reasons to watch it this upcoming Sunday.
